Once Kotori had thought up the idea of creating his own pack there had been no force he could imagine that would stop his dreams.  There had been bumps along the way but never once had he doubted himself.  He’d also never imagined choosing to step down.  Being in charge had felt like the ultimate goal but there was something else he wanted to do now.  Kotori’s lip curved in a smirk with that old whisper of arrogance stating he’d obtain whatever the hell he wanted.
 
Kotori had only lost what he wanted once but that was enough to ensure he didn’t screw up again.  Besides, he had once enjoyed roaming boreas when he was younger, seeing new things, and learning as he went.  With Ochi, he would get to see new sights again and this time with a beautiful lady with him.  

Kotori made his way towards Asla, the wolf he most trusted to care for his pack.  His older sister had cared for the pack for short periods of time when he’d gone to visit the hallows and he was confident she could care for it a longer span of time.  However, this was a bigger favor than the normal he was asking for.  

Kotori gave a small nod of his head in greeting to his sister, “Asla, I need to ask a favor of you.” If she didn’t want to take over the pack then what?  Hopefully, he wouldn’t have to consider that.

Asla did what she could for the pack; for her family. Just as she always had. Just as she always would. It was important to her and she'd only pulled away from her blood family because that care hadn't been reciprocated. She knew that Kotori appreciated her, however. She also knew that the rest of her family within Valta appreciated her efforts. It made a difference in the blonde fae's attitude and she didn't mind working for those that she loved one bit.

Asla was in the process of peeling the hide away from a freshly killed buck when her younger brother approached. The fae dipped her paws in a bucket of water and turned her galactic gaze to Kotori. He had something to talk to her about and one brow arched. "A favor?" Of course she would do anything within her power for him, he need only say the word.
